Mathematics and Music : Composition, Perception, and Performance

Description

""... a valuable addition to the literature and an important piece of pedagogical material. The exercises and answers make this work immediately valuable to any college-level (or advanced high school) instructor. An enlightened music department might count a course based on the book toward an undergraduate mathematics requirement. However it might be used, the authors have done a service to mathematicians and musicians alike.""-Robert Rowe, Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, 2014""Although this book is structured like a textbook (with exercises and extra material at the textbook website), it i.
